Sermon by Doctor Marquis =
Christian Precedents Quoted.
CHICAGO, November 6.-Rev. Doc
tor Marquis, of Jefferson Park Presby-
Lterian church, in his sermon this
morning, preached strongly against
the movement for the Communication Of
the sentence of the condemned An
archists. He took for his text the 9Th
verse of chapter XVII of the Acts,
quoting parallel case in an attempt
on the lives of Paul and Silas. After
comparing the cases at length, he said !:
"And can all suppose that any right
minded citizen who had regard for
law and justice, and the society Of life
and property, could be found
SO soft and slushv and senti-
mental, so insensible to the claims Of
law and order and justice and human
life, as to go beseeching the Emperor
with petitions for pardon or commuta-
tions Of sentence, especially as long
as the convicted conspirators contin-
ued to glory in their crime. l get
sick of this namby-pamby Miss-Nan-
cyism that loses sight of the punish
ment of crime in its sympathy for
criminals. When it comes to de-
throning law and setting aside its
penalty and enthroning in its stead
weak and senseless sentimentalism
that would say to every scoundrel in
creation, The law is only made to
threaten, it never was made to strike
then l say that such teaching and
such conduct is but a counterfeit of
Christianity, and it is at war with
every principle of genuine Christian
ity.o

1t is claimed that the new system
of certincation of cotton, now being
tried at the New York Cotton Ex-
change, gives greater advantages to
buyers than to sellers. 1t is believed
by many that the increased trading
is largely due to this new plan, by
which the purchaser of contract re-
ceives q warehouse receipt with the
certificate Of grade attached. and the
weight stamped on the receipt. This
receipt and certificate of grade are a
good delivery one year from date.
The grade is guaranteed by the New
York Cotton Exchange inspection
fund. This can be passed
with the same facility as
certificate Of stock, and offers
so say cotton men of high standing
a security second to none as a collat-
eral for banks or investors. Hereto
fore, under the old system, seller
might give notice of his intention to
deliver $4,000 or 10000 bales in one
day, when it would be physically i'm
possible either for the seller to de-
liver or the buyer to receive the cot
ton. Under the new system the
seller must have his cotton all
weighed, sampled, stored and classed
and the quantity which the buyer car
receive depends upon the amount O
money at his command.

BASE BALL.
Van Haitren ON the Diamond
Again ut Frisco.

@-~- - = -
Again mt Frisco.
SAN Francisco, November 6.-Van
Haltren's return home and his reap
pearance yesterday was probably the
magnet that drew together at Haight-
street Park one of the largest crowds
of the season to witness the game be-
tween the Greenhood & Morans and
Atlas. Van Haltren played in good
trim, and although given but one
chance to retire batter, was on the
move all the time and displayed
splendid judgment in covering the
ground and backing up the bases. His
work at the bat was also excellent,
hitting the ball hard every time,
making double, single and phantoms.
The contest was, in turns, good,
exciting and tame. Four double
plays we're made during the game for
each side. Mullee and Knel1 did the
pitching for their respective teams.
Both were wild and uncertain and
were batted freely, when they sue
ceeded in getting a ball over the
plate. Ten innings were necessary
to decide the game, the score standing
on the ninth inning, 8 to 8. In the
tenth inning for the Atlas, Cahill was
given his first on balls, stole second,
and scored what proved to be the win
ming run on McLaughlin's single to
third. The Greenhood & Morans
tailed to score in this inning.

ANOTHER SENSATION.
Engel Made a Desperate Effort to
Commit Suicide.

Engel Made a Desperate Effort to
Commit suicide.
Later tonight another remarkable
feature Of the matter came to light,
which explains why the search of the
cells happened to be made to-day. It
is asserted that late last night the
death watch in the murderer's row,
where the condemned men were con-
fined heard groans coming from En-
gels cell. Stepping to the door he saw
Engel laying on his back. breathing
stertoriously and groaning. The watch
man called him by name but could
get no answer and went into the cell,
only to discover that Engel
WAS UNCONSCIOUS,
Apparently under the influence of
some drug. After working with Engel
some time in an effort to rouse him,
Oakman became alarmed and sum-
moned DIR. Gray. physician in charge
of the insane department of the jail.
The latter, on looking at Engel, saw
that he was under the influence of
drug and strong effort was made to
arouse him. Engel partially aroused
and swore at them for interrupting his
rest, and demanded to be left alone.
He was forced
TO TAKE AN EMETIC,
however, and made to walk the floor
between two stalwart jailors until all
dangers passed. He continued to
protest that nothing was the matter
with him, but that he had taken a
little whisky and was little stupid.
This attempted suicide was what in
duced the authorities to order
A SEARCH OF ALL THE CELLS
To prevent like attempt on the part
Of the others. The bottle which con-
tanned the laudanum which Engel had
taken was found in an urinal in his |
,ell, with a, few drops of the drug still |
in it. When confronted with
his evidence he finally sullenly ad-
mitted his attempt at suicide and said |
hat he had done it because he pre-
erred death that way to the carrying |
,ut of the sentence of the law. He stub
oornly refused to tell how he had OBJ
aimed the poison.
HOW THE BOMBS GOT THERE.
1t is the opinion Of many that the
bombs afterwards found in Lingg's |
ell were passed through the grating |
% him after the announcement of the
decision of the United States Supreme
court, and that they were for the
purpose of suicide when the last hope
# aid otherwise was gone.
WHAT THE SOCIALISTS SAY.
The news of the bomb discovery
vas received at the Socialists political
headquarters with jeers and laughter.
Nearly all present declared that the
,ombs had been placed in the cell by
'fficials for the purpose of furthering
he "plot to murder the imprisoned
,oys,"
